Details
Campers arrive and experience the majesty of the USS YORKTOWN, sleep in the berthing areas where the sailors once slept, learn about naval and aviation history. Each camping package includes self-guided tours, meals and entertainment plus opportunities to earn belt loops/pins, onboard activities include having 'the run' of the ship late into the evening - scouts get a chance to explore the ship on their own.
This boat is a floating museum that includes a flight simulator, a rock climbing wall, several full-size air craft on the hanger deck, movie theater, and more.
Scouts have an exciting, exceptional opportunity to earn merit badges during their overnight camping experience at Patriots Point. All merit badges require advance reservation. Each program is designed to capitalize on the unique aspects of our naval and maritime museum as well the surrounding estuary where the Yorktown is berthed. All programs offer their participants unique hands-on experience, increasing the ability to learn new concepts and skills. Space in these programs is limited, and participants are registered on a first come, first serve basis.
